‘Tis the season…to rip paper off of gifts! If that happens in your home, be sure to save as many scraps of paper as you can. Cut them into small pieces (about 4x4). Hand them out to students in the New Year and provide them with a writing prompt meant to elicit a brief response. After students have written their response, direct them to fold the paper up as if it was a gift, and exchange it with a peer. Such a simple way to add some novelty, emphasize that sharing ideas is similar to gift giving, and reuse wrapping paper! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Thank you for sharing this gift wrapping techniques. Gift wrapping sometimes takes more time and moré paper, the technique that adopt by you saves paper. If you are master in it, then you can make some money out of it.
